"Wild animals provide a sense of freedom, in particular for children living in urban environments", says child psychologist Barbie Clarke, who has extensively researched about children and their development. The natural habitats of the orangutan, panda, tiger and other DJUNGELSKOG animals are threatened. This concerns many children. "But they’re also curious and want to learn more about the animals", explains Barbie. That’s why DJUNGELSKOG includes a number of books, too.

GreatRyanWay better than spending $100 on eBay for this
Good qualityLauraPerfect toy
Love it 😍ElsaSo soft and such a cute plushie.
Soft and cuddlyLeslieI used the buy online and pick up at the store and it was a breeze. The orangutan is well crafted, super soft and cuddly. I like that they eyes are sewn on eliminating a choking hazard for little ones.
Punch monkeyEdgarGot this for my girlfriend because she absolutely fell in love with Punch. She love her new plush
Adore her!GretaVery soft and snuggly... and of course, sweetly reminds me of Punch. I snuggle with her more than my little kiddos do!
Monkey LoveLizaThe kids just loved their surprises. Thank you so much, especially for coming to Pharr, Tx
Punch the MonkeyChuIt was a perfect gift!
If it's good enough for Punch, it's good enough for me.StephenOfficially, it's known as the Djungelskog. Unofficially, it's known as Punch's emotional support stuffie.
For those of you unfamiliar with the story, a baby macaque in Japan was rejected by its mother, and when he was placed with a troop in a Japanese zoo, they shunned him. So, the zookeepers named him Pachi (Punch in Japanese), and gave him a stuffed orangutan to keep him company and provide comfort. Watching the poor little guy carry around his plushie and run to it whenever the other macaques give him trouble is heartbreaking, although lately he's slowly being accepted.
IKEA probably didn't realize how popular their Djungelskog plushies this would be ever since Punch went viral; I was surprised myself that I was able to order one online. It's very soft, and I didn't know that its hands and feet had velcro tabs on it. He's hanging out in the back seat of my car now - what can I say, we all need an emotional support orangutan! Thanks, IKEA!
"PUNCHIE" Monkey, couldn't resist.HeidiWith the viral story of Punch, the Japanese monkey who's mom rejected him, as well as other monkeys, he endured their abuse and rejection, he found solace and comfort in this Ikea monkey, and my heart could not resist. I had to get one for myself! Everyone is rooting for you "Punch"❤️.
For Punch <3LaurenThe best monkey mother for sweet Punch 😭💔
BeautifulEzramy daughter loves this bear so nice and soft
As sweety as I thinkElizabethPerfect
Best Purchase EverErisI love this monkey with my entire heart. He is so cute and baby and adds a light to my life that had been missing for years. I have so far gifted five of these monkeys to my friends/family. Every recipient of this magical stuffed animal has been delighted by its cuteness and overall awesomeness. I believe everyone should have a DJUNGELSKOG monkey.
So lovableVictoriaMy daughter has always wanted this . We have named him Jefferson Marcus Monkey!
I got him as a gift, and he's wonderful!EmilyThis plush orangutan is super duper soft and comfy. He's also very nice to hug and sleep with. Me and my sister send each other Instagram posts from different pages who post pictures of this same plush in various locations. It's kind of just become an inside thing we do. She found out that they were from IKEA and got me one as a surprise gift! "It's just a real nice surprise. Just a real nice surprise". He's large and has cool velcro hands and feet! As I said before, he's super soft and squishy! He's just a great quality plush overall!! I love him! <3
Monkey AnonymousMy great grandson loves the monkey.

Cute and great sizeSamanthaThis was so cute and the size was great. His hands were able to stick together to create a hanging look. Perfect for a theme nursery and the value was great as well.

Story
Long live the wild animals
DJUNGELSKOG soft toys collection is full of friends to play with and – sometimes – get consolation from. But it has one more important purpose: to highlight wild animals that are endangered due to human activities. Like the orangutan. It lives in Borneo's rainforests where fires and deforestation have reduced their numbers. But it's possible to reverse the trend.
Martin Petri, who works with sustainability at IKEA, was in a rainforest in Borneo in 2016. It was hot and humid. The sound from surrounding wildlife resonated intensively in all directions. High up in a tree, he caught a glimpse of an orangutan dwelling – they were back. "In 1983, a forest fire destroyed 18,500 hectares of rainforest", says Martin. "When Ingvar Kamprad, founder of IKEA, heard about it he wanted to contribute to the restoration of the rainforest. That's why, since 1998, we've financed the project ‘Sow a seed’ which has led to more than 12,500 hectares of rainforest being replanted."
Children care and want to learn more
More rainforest means more orangutans
Humans have the possibility to restore the natural habitats of animals and the biological diversity which provides balance in nature ─ just like in the rainforest Martin Petri visited. “’Sow a seed’ is one of the world’s largest rainforest projects, and has given involved researchers valuable knowledge which will be useful for other rainforests which have burned down or been felled", explains Martin. More rainforest in Borneo means more orangutans swinging between the trees with their long arms. What a beautiful sight.
